ZR-66 Source, 6 Zone MultiZone Receiver with AM/FM Tuner and Plug-and-Play iPod Integration

The ZR-6 MultiZone Receiver is the centerpiece of a six-source, six-zone distributed audio system (expandable to 18 zones) targeted directly at the heart of the market. A ZR-6 system can be installed right out of the box because it features a built-in AM/FM tuner, plug-and-play iPod integration, and a wide range of self-configuring user interfaces. For customers that want more personalization, the ZR-6 can easily be custom configured from the front panel without a computer. And with the introduction of the TS-Pro Color Touchscreen, there are even more options. This self-configuring touchscreen adds even more elegance and functionality to the ZR-6.

There is much more to the ZR-6 MultiZone system that sets it apart from the competition. It delivers Niles “One Touch To Music®” via complete source synchronization and automation. Its infrared storage library incorporates additional library pages for controlling other devices such as lights, shades and other infrared controlled devices. With exception of the TS-Pro Color Touchscreen, all of the ZR-6 keypads are weather-resistant and can be installed in outdoor environments or in showers, baths and spas. The ZR-6 hits the sweet spot for the majority of your clients —and that’s exactly what you’re looking for.

ZR-4 Series 2FG016104 Source, 4 Zone MultiZone Receiver Kit with AM/FM Tuner and Weather-Resistant Keypads

The Niles ZR-4 Series 2 MultiZone Receiver Kit is a four-source, four-zone distributed audio system targeted at the light commercial and entry-level residential markets. It’s a complete kit with everything you need to create a great-sounding system. The MultiZone receiver features a built-in AM/FM tuner so the system plays music right out of the box and a 4-ohm stable digital amplifier with a newly enhanced power supply and fan-cooled circuitry.

Also included are four weather-resistant keypads with built-in IR sensors, opening up installation possibilities outdoors and in wet environments such as showers, kitchens, and spas. To complete the system, there’s a hand-held learning remote control, three infrared flashers, and rack-mount ears. It’s a system that’s as easy to order, as it is to sell. If four zones are not enough, add another ZR-4 Series 2; it’s one of the simplest to install eight-zone systems you can buy.
